Captain Phillips Review | LRA

Director Paul Greengrass is no stranger to bringing frightening real world events to life on the big screen. His anti-war film Greenzone tackled the debacle of the WMD searches prior to 2003 invasion of Iraq and his film United 93 was a film of startling power and emotion that to this day stands as the one film to truly capture the horror we all experienced on September 11th, 2001. With a track record like that, it’s no surprise that his new film Captain Phillips once again pits him face to face with yet another story of extraordinary courage in the face of adversity.
